OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Join the group,PIR 05/31/2013 TG 29 (clickable link), to connect with others with loved ones training with your SR. Know that Divisions 205 and 206 are brother divisions and train together and will have Battle Stations-21 together, so look for others with loved ones in either division. There will later be a discussion within that group for the two divisions.

Liberty is called shortly after 10:30 am. See http://www.bootcamp.navy.mil/grad_day.asp for the schedule for PIR.
Where is your Sailor going for "A" School and/or what will his rating (job/specialty) be? That will help to determine how much time you have with him on Friday and over the weekend. See PIR Day and Liberty During PIR Weekend.
